36 – Second Kiss (1)
But I looked at it once and went back, but it didn’t bother me.
They were also busy keeping their seats.
‘It’s worth coming here.’
Maru felt his ax mastery increase with his body.
At first, I only took shots with an axe, but now I realized the skill of throwing an axe and hitting it accurately.
‘It would be better if it came back like a boomerang.’
‘Ogre Hand Ax’ gifted by Audrey
It’s a usable axe, but it was a bit annoying to have to go pick it up again after throwing it.
Anyway, it was about two hours after I came here.
When Maru had a lot of spare time, he asked Edward what he was thinking about in his head.
“What does your sister say about marriage? They say you want to get married to the Empire?”
Edward was using a tool to pull out the monster’s fangs.
He stopped moving and suddenly raised his voice.
“Even the queen is indifferent! Isn’t it natural that I, the older brother, go first! Why are you only taking care of Audrey’s wedding!”
Edward, too, seemed dissatisfied, as if he had his own circumstances.
“I also want to go to the Empire and raise my name! Audrey! You are not Go to the Empire, but Go to Hell! I remember peeing on the covers until I was 11! If the queen finds out, she will be angry and call off the wedding!”
He was talking nonsense in his excitement, and then tripped in a pit and fell.
“Ah! I’m dying!”
“Do a little bit of that.”
I looked at Edward’s ankle, which had fallen to the floor, and it was swollen.
I think it was caused by a 90 degree bend in my ankle when I fell.
“Floor! help me! It hurts!”
“There are no priests. I need to stop hunting.”
“Po, the potion!?”
“I didn’t bring it.”
“Huh! That, it can be!”
“Yeah… If you don’t mind, can I help you?”
The priestess from the next party had come and was looking down at Edward.
As she smiled and brushed her bobbed hair behind her ear, Edward put on a blank expression, as if it was love at first sight.
“Wow, it seems to be shining… ! What is the wife’s name?”
“I am Aslag. Are you in a lot of pain? Let me look at your legs.”
She healed Edward’s ankle with a healing technique and returned to the party.
Edward was so lost that he kept staring at her from afar.
“I’ve never seen such a beautiful woman… I can’t believe it… ”
Maru waved his palm in front of him and laughed.
“Am I your daughter from today?”
“Daughter? What is it?”
“Ingredients for imagination. It’s a slang word used in hometown. Let’s go back.”
“already? Isn’t it a bit early? My ankle is also healed, so let’s stay longer!”
“no. It’s dangerous because you’re crazy about that woman.”
“What does that have to do with looking at the wife over there?”
“Then I get hit by a monster.”
“I won’t look at you, so just a little bit. huh? Let’s stay a little longer! please!”
Urging Edward, who did not want to go back, arrived at the palace an hour later.
“ah… If you meet that wife again… ”
Edward was still thinking of her.
“The next time we meet, I will ask if you have a boyfriend. Forget about today and get some rest.”
Maru patted his drooping back and separated from the stable.
And when I arrived at the front of the room and opened the door, I heard a voice from behind.
“Did you have a good hunt?”
Looking back, Audrit was smiling.
In a friendly way, pretending that nothing has happened.
“… … ”
Maru stared at her without a word.
‘What? this woman.’
Someone is going to die, but only you are excited.
I’m just laughing comfortably
It was frustrating because I couldn’t understand her intentions.
But seeing the face made me feel good.
clap.
opened the door wide
“Do you want to come in?”
She nodded willingly.
“yes.”
Audrit came inside and looked around the room with her hands behind her back.
“It’s always tidy here.”
“Because tidying up has become a habit.”
“Do you organize it yourself?”
“yes.”
After closing the door, Maru put the things he was wearing on the table one by one.
I put down my one-handed axe, took off my gloves, and took off my chest protector, all the while thinking about what to do with her.
“Oh, should I change my clothes?”
“That’s right, but let’s just talk.”
“I do not like it. I want to talk in a comfortable state. oh I just need to pull the blanket over myself.”
She tucked her head under the blanket without asking permission.
“Is that enough? Well… ? what. Why does the blanket smell like women’s cosmetics?”
“It must be because of the mood.”
“Suspicious.”
“Anyway, there will be wonderful grooms waiting in the empire, but what does it matter whether a guy like me smells of another woman in his bed?”
“Look at that blunt voice. Are you angry that I didn’t see you yesterday or today?”
“I’m angry.”
“Are you mad?”
Maru said bitterly again.
“I was worried.”
“Right, right. I knew you would!”
She was delighted and laughed happily under the covers.
He didn’t even know that her buttocks protruded out of the blanket as she lay face down on the bed like a cat.
Every time I laughed, my hips and the hem of my skirt swayed gently.
It looked downright bewitching.
‘Aren’t you too defenseless in front of a man? naive You shouldn’t do that in front of other men.’
Maru turned his gaze to another place and said.
“So what are you going to do? Will you agree to an arranged marriage?”
“I saw Lord Maru doing it.”
“I’m from the Empire, so I can give you one piece of advice. Men in the Empire have a different standard of beauty than here. If you go there, the princess will look uglier than an orc.”
“what?”
Audrey flushed and pulled her head out of the covers.
I was startled when I saw Maru wearing only underwear before I knew it, and hurriedly put my head into the blanket.
“Oh, I have to tell you how far you are naked!”
“Who will explain to you when you change clothes?”
“You do!”
“If you answer my question, I will do as you say.”
“What is it? tell me.”
“Why didn’t you meet me?”
“Pu-huh.”
What would be so much fun?
Audrit giggled like a girl and began to brag excitedly.
“A few days ago, I went to see the love fortune with Baroness Osmond.”
Mary’s mansion a few days ago.
Even though it was getting dark, the garden was lined with wagons loaded with young ladies from aristocratic families.
Suddenly, the princess’ carriage passed through the front gate and entered the garden, and the women waiting in line looked at it curiously.
“I hope the princess… ?”
“He will come.”
After a while, when the hooded princess got out of the carriage, the women burst into laughter in surprise.
“Oh my gosh what? The princess seems to be dating these days too.”
“Who is it? Who are you dating?”
“Seeing that he came all the way here, he seems to be in a hurry too.”
Gossips were heard everywhere.
Audrey hurriedly entered the building with her head bowed with a troubled look on her face.
Mrs. Osmond had notified her of the princess’ visit, so she did not have to wait in line.
I immediately sat down with Mrs. Mary.
“Can I hear an explanation about Nanggun? Anything is fine, so feel free to tell me.”
“So… ”
Audrit shared a few things she knew about Maru on the spot.
After hearing the story, Mrs. Mary nodded calmly.
“Then, let’s look at the fortune-telling now.”
She suddenly stuck out her tongue.
A small card with a picture was placed on her tongue.
“Oh my gosh… !”
“Wow… ”
Audrit and Mrs. Osmond were startled.
Mrs. Mary held the card in her hand and looked at it.
“The man has good wealth luck and family luck.”
She stuck out her tongue again.
Another card came out this time.
“There is also the power to move large continents. You seem to be a very talented person.”
Again, he pulled a card from his tongue.
“From swordsmanship to reverse horsemanship… You have something bad for the princess. But if you think differently, the princess will not have frequent conflicts with her in-laws because she did not listen to her parents thanks to the reverse magic.”
She made a surprised expression.
“How did you meet such a person? Incredible. He is so energetic that I wonder if the man is born with the luck of a king. It’s like the sun shining all over the people. However, it is difficult for the princess. It’s like being dragged around by this person for the rest of your life. You will suffer greatly.”
Still, Audrey liked it.
“I love being dragged around! Any person you love can be dragged around!”
Mrs. Mary shook her head disapprovingly.
“Dating is something that you have to hide even when you hide your feelings. Sometimes you have to put your opponent in a hurry to save my value high. So, princess. If you’re being dragged along unconditionally, you’re only hurting yourself.”
Mrs. Osmond also had a look of admiration, perhaps sympathizing with him.
“Princess. I think that’s right too. Even though I always took care of my husband with utmost sincerity, let alone saying thank you, he thinks of me as being funny. Suddenly, I want to slap honey chestnuts on my husband’s forehead. I’m dying of hate.”
present again.
Maru was changing into comfortable clothes and Audrey was sitting on the bed and talking.
“I didn’t think much of pushing and pushing because it didn’t suit my temper, but just in time, Queen Alexandria proposed an arranged marriage, what is it? The baroness encouraged me by saying that now is an opportunity, so I gave it a try. Originally, I thought we wouldn’t see each other for about a week, but after a day or two, I couldn’t stand it. That’s why, as soon as you arrived at the palace, you ran out of your room and met me.”
Audrey laughed brightly.
“Have you had a hard two days? Did you miss me?”
Maru was standing with his arms crossed with his back against the closet.
he laughed mischievously.
“It was very complicated by myself, but the princess must have had fun.”
“Are you still mad?”
“I am not angry.”
Maru sighed deeply and unnecessarily opened the closet door that was closed and closed it again.
“Honestly, I was angry too, right?”
“There won’t be. Which one?”
“You’re sleeping with a dragon.”
Audrit immediately burst into tears.
“I was so shocked to hear that I had slept with a hero, so I cried in my room. Actually, I did this because I wanted you to be sick because of me.”
“Do you feel a bit jealous when you see the handsome young men of the Empire?”
“Did you feel it?”
Maru scratched his nose.
“little bit.”
“Just a little bit?”
“Did you feel a lot?”
Maru scratched the back of his head with a different voice.
Then, as if to change the topic, he asked.
“Anyway, what about an arranged marriage? I’ll do it?”
“Are you curious?”
She smiled and answered calmly.
“I don’t.”
Maru tilted his head.
“why? You wanted to meet Queen Alexandria.”
“I gave up because of you. You look better than the men in those portraits.”
In an instant, her words penetrated deeply into my heart.

Joy rushed in.
